Los Angeles Chargers standout pass rusher Joey Bosa disclosed Friday that he has been playing with a fractured left big toe.
Bosa said the toe got stepped on in a Week 3 game against the Minnesota Vikings. He sat out the following week against the Las Vegas Raiders with hamstring and toe injuries.
Bosa told reporters that both ailments -- the toe and hamstring -- are healing and he's good to go for Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
"The first couple weeks were tough," Bosa said. "I got stepped on. Obviously, it was an accident.
"Definitely still sore in the toe but the hamstring is 100 percent. ... Your toe gets stepped on all the time when you are in the trenches."
Bosa was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday before being a full-go on Friday. He was not given a game status.
Bosa played in Monday's 20-17 loss to the Dallas Cowboys but was limited to 30 snaps due to the two ailments. He has played just 77 snaps over the past three games.
"I've just got to manage it," Bosa said of the toe. "Make sure I'm keeping it nice and taking care of it. But it shouldn't be a problem anymore."
Bosa, a four-time Pro Bowler, has three sacks this season to raise his career count to 63.5 over eight NFL seasons, all with the Chargers.
The Chargers ruled out four players on Friday -- safety Alohi Gilman (heel), cornerback Deane Leonard (hamstring), defensive lineman Otito Ogbonnia (knee) and receiver Jalen Guyton (knee). Safety Derwin James Jr. (ankle) and linebacker Amen Ogbongbeminga (groin) are questionable.
Guyton and Ogbonnia are currently on injured reserve but the team opened their 21-day practice windows on Thursday.
